Multisite Search with Craft and Algolia
With a large site on Craft CMS and an even larger one on Salesforce Commerce Cloud, PJPS was wrestling with how to deliver a seamless experience.
Once part of the world-famous yacht company, Palmer Johnson Power Systems has never shied away from colossal jobs in extreme environments. The dusty oil fields of the Permian Basin. The crushing waves of the Pacific. Ultimately, that's what PJPS engineers and service techs go up against everyday, all the while providing industry-renowned customer service. They challenged us to hop aboard the same ship.
Our work has included multiple Craft CMS projects for Palmer Johnson's new ventures and acquisitions, helping the company maintain a cohesive digital presence and streamline admin. By integrating multiple sites with tools like Algolia Search, a Craft CMS plugin for shared components, and Google API location integrations, we've helped bring a consistent experience to the portfolio.
With a large site on Craft CMS and an even larger one on Salesforce Commerce Cloud, PJPS was wrestling with how to deliver a seamless experience.
PJPS needed a way to maintain consistent component code across multiple brand websites while still allowing for customization.
With the client already managing a large number locations in Google, managing those same locations in Craft CMS was needlessly redundant.
Like any website redesign, this project involved multiple stakeholders with a variety of goals. For the project to be successful, we needed to collaborate to find a unified vision of success.
